Tools of the Trade

Category: Poetry/Lyrics

A song lyric:

Tools of the Trade

She said come on baby don’t be afraid
And slipped her hand into mine
Then she explained how she had to get paid
But you know we’ll have a good time

I stammered and blushed, I guess I was shy
I was looking for someplace to run
She patted my cheek and tickled my thigh
And whispered, “Come on let’s have fun”

So we went to her room and took off our clothes
Then she crawled onto her side of the bed
She spread out her arms and gave me a wink
And I’ll never forget what she said

(chorus)

She said tools of the trade
Tools of the trade
You gotta use what the good lord has made
That’s why he made ‘em so don’t be afraid
So we applied the tools of the trade

Many years later when I was all grown
I took the sweetest young thing for my bride
She was so nervous about the unknown
I told her we had nothing to hide

After a while she understood
That love was a physical thing
And all of our parts fit together so well
And together we often would sing

We’d sing tools of the trade
Tools of the trade
You gotta use what the good lord has made
That’s why he made ‘em so don’t be afraid
So we applied the tools of the trade

(Bridge)
We had seven children and now they’re all grown
Many of them have kids of their own
I’m thoroughly amazed at the seeds that I’ve sown
And what a beautiful family I made
Now I’m an old man all withered and gray
I spend half my time asleep in the shade
Here’s a piece of advice I want to relay
You gotta use the tools of the trade


(chorus)
I told you, Tools of the trade
Tools of the trade
You gotta use what the good lord made
That’s why he made ‘em so don’t be afraid
Apply the tools of the trade
